In the lead-up to the public vote we have been giving our readers an update of some of this year’s nominees including those in line for Software Application of the Year and Enterprise 3D Printer of the Year (Metal and Polymers). Keeping up with nomination updates, here we have a rundown of some of the current nominees for 3D Scanning/Metrology Company of the Year.
Before choosing a 3D scanner, you’ll need to decide what sort of?quality you want. Options range from a “professional” scanner, which is more expensive in most cases,?to your smartphone, useful for getting used to scanning 3D objects.
The scanner has a few minor annoyances. For example, the attached 6.75-foot (2-meter) USB cable isn’t long enough to move the scanner very far from the computer. This means that when scanning a large object (such as a person), you have to carry both the scanner and the computer around as you scan, or buy a USB extension cable. A wireless connection (such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth) would have been preferable here, and would have made the scanner more flexible. A way to start or pause the scan from the scanner itself, rather than using the keyboard, also would have been beneficial.
The BQ Ciclop is an open source 3D scanner rig that you assemble yourself replete with open source software Horus. Finnicky and difficult to construct precisely this rig requires multiple passes and patience. Its performance depends on how well you assemble it. The software is buggy and scanning is slow. You can print out the parts and buy some components themselves or buy a kit from BQ and others. It’s your least expensive entry point but will take time to work.
Qualcomm’s ultrasonic tech, tested by CNET, "uses sound waves to generate a map of your fingerprint, with the wave of pressure bouncing off the contours of your skin."
The video shows an alleged S10+, Note 9 and?Oppo Find X being squeezed into a case designed for Samsung’s incoming flagship. While the Note 9 is significantly too large, the S10+ is expected to offer the same 6.4in screen surrounded by smaller bezels. The Find X fits into the case snuggly, suggesting the dimensions of the S10+ will be similar to those of the 6.2in S9+.?
It seems obvious that eliminating steps will increase speed and decrease cost, but first, we need to understand a bit more about the entire?cost of 3D printing metals. We can break cost down into three different categories as follows:
as well as making additive manufacturing an integral part of the workflow — increasing efficiencies and lowering total cost of operation.”
Based on these models the company also brought to market the EinScan Discovery for color 3D scanning.
Physician Tarek Loubani, based in London, came up with the idea of 3D printing a stethoscope. His open-access template?is meant to be printed using medical-grade reusable plastics. He called it Glia model and it has been clinically validated.
It’s no secret that 3D printing is kind of a big deal in 2019, even excluding consumer enthusiast?communities: As an industry, it was worth about $7.3 billion in 2018, according to the Wohlers Report. That’s a 20% growth from the previous year. Investors are taking note of the opportunity, fueling the fast pace of innovation we see in this industry today.
“There are some limitations as to what my students can create. Since this program uses geometric shapes, it can be difficult for the students to get too creative as they cannot draw what they want to make.”
